Riane Eisler: “Partnership and Domination Systems”
By Nate Hagens, originally published by The Great Simplification March 27, 2024
"...What we value at the individual and family level directly translates to the way we frame our governance systems – societies that emphasize empathy and caring also implement the same types of policies and values. How could we foster the more cooperative side of our humanity across all scales to create empowered communities and balanced decision making? What societies – past and present – lean towards a partnership paradigm and what benefits do their people receive? Is it possible to move away from violence and control oriented systems and into ones that value wide boundaries of empathy and understand the vital nature of care work?"
They had me at "chaos theory" which is the last item in the show's table of contents, at 1:06:03 if you're curious, lol.
